Quantum speedups for stochastic optimizationResearch Paper
Motivation
Quantum speedups for stochastic optimization establishes the selected mathematical guarantees below. The mission turns those original paper results into precise Lean proof targets.
Setting
Let d≥1 and let f:Rd→R be differentiable and globally convex. Suppose f attains its global minimum at a point x⋆ with ∥x⋆∥2≤R, where L,R≥0 are public bounds. For every query point x, the stochastic gradient is drawn from a measurable probability law satisfying
E[g(x)]=∇f(x),E∥g(x)∥22≤L2.
Assume coherent unitary access to this gradient law, preserving the query point and allowing arbitrary garbage, and access to the inverse oracle. The implementation uses normalized zero registers, Born measurement laws, and known Gaussian preparation and reordering operations that construct the smoothed oracle with one gradient-oracle call. These operations and the mean-estimation routine are fixed before the unknown objective and oracle. The mean-estimation interface cited on p.8 is realized, rather than assumed as a convergence hypothesis: for any sampling oracle with variance at most L2, requested error 0<η≤L, and 0<δ<1, its execution has total probability one and finite expected calls, and its estimate is within Euclidean distance η of the mean with probability at least 1−δ.
For any ϵ>0, run Algorithm 3 with fresh Algorithm 2 gradient estimates. In the nontrivial case L,R>0 and ϵ<LR, its parameters are
It starts from x1=x1ag=0. At iteration t, set βt=(t+1)/2, γt=(t+1)γ/2, and xtmd=βt−1xt+(1−βt−1)xtag. Use Algorithm 2 on the Gaussian-smoothed gradient law at xtmd, then use the printed ball-constrained update
The returned point is xout=xT+1ag. The same execution, including its classical randomness and quantum measurements, has total probability one and satisfies
E[f(xout)−f(x⋆)]≤ϵ,E[Q]=O(d5/8(LR/ϵ)3/2).
Here Q counts every call to the original gradient oracle and its inverse. Its expectation is finite; the positive geometric level in Algorithm 2 allows an unbounded query count. Explicitly, there are absolute constants C>0, an integer p≥0, and a threshold a≥1, all independent of the dimension, bounds, accuracy, objective, probability laws, and register realization, such that whenever LR/ϵ≥a,
If L=0, R=0, or ϵ≥LR, the implementation returns 0 with no queries and retains the expected-accuracy guarantee. The minimizing point x⋆ is used only to express the guarantee and is not supplied to the algorithm. This result gives the expected-query speedup of the paper's quantum accelerated stochastic approximation method; it asserts no gate-complexity or fixed-confidence output bound.
Formalization Note The real iteration budget on p.13 is rounded upward to define a finite loop. The statement preserves the proximal center and all other displayed constants. The p.13/p.15 pointwise gradient assertion is incompatible with the stated second-moment hypothesis; the proof also contains an extra factor 1/r, a reversed optimum-gap sign, and a constant gap in its use of Lemma 5. These are disclosed proof gaps, not additional hypotheses or silent changes to Algorithm 3. No directional-mean definition is imported or reconstructed.

Theorem 5 (Formal version of Theorem 1, Part 1)
Let d≥1 and let f:Rd→R be differentiable and globally convex. Suppose f attains its global minimum at a point x⋆ with ∥x⋆∥2≤R, where L,R≥0 are public bounds. For every query point x, the stochastic gradient is drawn from a measurable probability law satisfying

The Quantum Esscher Transform establishes the selected mathematical guarantees below. The mission turns those original paper results into precise Lean proof targets.
Setting
Let d≥1, n,a,nρ≥0, θ∈Rd, and κ>1 be public parameters. Set
where 0<ε<2−β. The input ρ is an n-qubit trace-one density operator whose eigenvalues lie in [1/κ,1]. Each Hj is Hermitian with ∥Hj∥op≤1. Purified access is a unitary Oρ on nρ+n qubits preparing a purification of ρ, with the nρ ancillary qubits first. Let Uρ be the exact (1,n+nρ,0) block-encoding supplied by the purification construction of Proposition 12. For each j, supplied Uj is a (1,a,εBE) block-encoding of Hj; ordinary, adjoint and controlled signal access are available.
There are universal constants Cρ,Cobs>0, a nonnegative integer p, and a universal threshold 0<ε0<1 such that, for every admissible public parameter choice with ε≤ε0, a QEsscher circuit can be selected before ρ,Hj,Oρ,Uj. This circuit is the logarithm transformation, coefficient state-preparation pair, padded linear combination, and exponential transformation of Algorithm 1. It works for every admissible hidden input and oracle completion. With b=⌈log2(d+1)⌉ and aout=max(a,n+nρ)+b+4, its unitary Uout satisfies
Its oracle counts, including ordinary, adjoint and controlled calls, obey
qρ≤CρκL2max(1,log2(2+κL2))p,qj≤CobsL(j∈[d]).
The logarithm of a positive matrix is defined by applying log2 to its eigenvalues; exp is the natural matrix exponential. The constants, exponent and threshold are independent of all public parameters, hidden matrices and oracle implementations.
This supplies the subnormalized transform as a block-encoding, useful as an operator primitive. The query count is for Uρ; each such call can be implemented with a constant number of purification-oracle calls. The actual nρ is retained in the footprint; the source's nρ=poly(n) is a family convention, and no gate-time conclusion is asserted.
Source corrections and limitation. Algorithm 1 and Step 3 print b=⌈log2d⌉, although their d+1 coefficients require b=⌈log2(d+1)⌉. The box prints the divisor eβ; the statement uses proof Step 5's explicit 4eβ. The printed error schedule is retained. The claim that its numeral 8 ensures Eq. (III.2) has an unresolved quantitative degree-bound gap; accuracy remains the theorem's conclusion, without adding that bound as an assumption.

Purified access is a unitary Oρ on nρ+n qubits preparing a purification of ρ, with the nρ ancillary qubits first. Let Uρ be the exact (1,n+nρ,0) block-encoding supplied by the purification construction of Proposition 12. For each j, supplied Uj is a (1,a,εBE) block-encoding of Hj; ordinary, adjoint and controlled signal access are available.
There are universal constants Cρ,Cobs>0, a nonnegative integer p, and a universal threshold 0<ε0<1 such that, for every admissible public parameter choice with ε≤ε0, a QEsscher circuit can be selected before ρ,Hj,Oρ,Uj. This circuit is the logarithm transformation, coefficient state-preparation pair, padded linear combination, and exponential transformation of Algorithm 1. It works for every admissible hidden input and oracle completion. With b=⌈log2(d+1)⌉ and aout=max(a,n+nρ)+b+4, its unitary Uout satisfies
Its oracle counts, including ordinary, adjoint and controlled calls, obey
qρ≤CρκL2max(1,log2(2+κL2))p,qj≤CobsL(j∈[d]).
The logarithm of a positive matrix is defined by applying log2 to its eigenvalues; exp is the natural matrix exponential. The constants, exponent and threshold are independent of all public parameters, hidden matrices and oracle implementations.
This supplies the subnormalized transform as a block-encoding, useful as an operator primitive. The query count is for Uρ; each such call can be implemented with a constant number of purification-oracle calls. The actual nρ is retained in the footprint; the source's nρ=poly(n) is a family convention, and no gate-time conclusion is asserted.
Source corrections and limitation. Algorithm 1 and Step 3 print b=⌈log2d⌉, although their d+1 coefficients require b=⌈log2(d+1)⌉. The box prints the divisor eβ; the statement uses proof Step 5's explicit 4eβ. The printed error schedule is retained. The claim that its numeral 8 ensures Eq. (III.2) has an unresolved quantitative degree-bound gap; accuracy remains the theorem's conclusion, without adding that bound as an assumption.

There is an absolute constant C>0 such that, for every Pellian or semi-Pellian polynomial P, an oracle instrument can be chosen independently of a and of the orthonormal basis. Given one copy of any of the four states and its known classical label, the instrument outputs a bit bP satisfying

Fast Estimation of Sparse Quantum NoiseResearch Paper
Motivation
Fast Estimation of Sparse Quantum Noise establishes the selected mathematical guarantees below. The mission turns those original paper results into precise Lean proof targets.
Setting
Fix a sparsity exponent 0<δ<1/2. There are positive constants C,c,β and a threshold n0≥1, depending only on this fixed exponent and public design/code choices, and a public construction of the subsampling and peeling protocol for every n≥n0 and integer s=4δn.
The labels of the N=4n phase-free n-qubit Paulis are a=(ax,az)∈F22n. Let K be uniform among the size-s subsets of these labels. For each possible K, assign arbitrary nonnegative rates p(K) with total mass one, support exactly K, and pa(K)≥ϵ0>0 on K. This assignment is independent of the protocol's public randomness and observation noise. The associated channel is E(ρ)=∑apaPaρPa, and its eigenvalues are
λa=b∑(−1)ax⋅bz+az⋅bxpb.
The observed eigenvalue vector has independent centered Gaussian errors of variance ξ2, with ξ≥0, independent of the support and the public design. Repeated reads use the same indexed observation and are counted as queries.
The construction chooses B=2b bins with s≤B≤Cs, constantly many subsampling groups, and P1,P2=Θ(n) offsets. Random offsets and binary hash matrices are sampled independently and uniformly before the hidden input. Coded offsets use a full-rank binary linear code with positive constant relative distance and a public, query-free, linear-time decoder. The decoder's realization, correction property and time bound are conclusions of the construction. Assume
ξ2≤min(s2B,1),ϵ0≥B2ξ.
Algorithms 2–4 produce a list of distinct labels with support exactly K and estimated rates p, zero off the reported support, satisfying
Pr[supp(p)=Kand∥p−p∥∞≤B2ξ]≥1−e−cn.
The probability averages over the uniform support, public design, Gaussian observations, and any internal decoder randomness. Every execution uses at most Csn eigenvalue reads and Csn2 classical arithmetic/indexing instructions. The computed conditional success probabilities are measurable.
This result recovers both the locations and values of sparse Pauli errors from noisy eigenvalues. It does not assert a quantum measurement sample complexity.
Formalization Note The frozen, independently reviewed program composition is used directly. It separates the ordinary b-bit WHT from the symplectic 2n-bit label pairing, resolves the printed dimensional inconsistencies as approved in the definition review, and retires peeled bins according to the graph description. The theorem does not assume successful bin detection, favorable graph events, accuracy, runtime, or independence of overlapping bin errors.

Fix a finite spatial dimension d, bounds on the number and geometric radius of sites in each Hamiltonian term, a local-term density bound bd+cdrd, a spectral gap γ>0, an observable locality bound q, and a confidence parameter δ∈(0,1). Consider n-qubit Hamiltonians H(x)=∑jhj(x), smoothly parametrized by x∈[−1,1]m. Each term is Hermitian, obeys ∥hj(x)∥∞≤1, and has directional derivative of operator norm at most one in every Euclidean unit parameter direction. These properties hold throughout the cube; smoothness at its boundary uses a local smooth extension. Every Hamiltonian has an excited energy and a gap at least γ above its entire ground eigenspace. Let ρ(x) be the normalized projector onto that eigenspace, allowing degeneracy.
For a fixed Hermitian observable O=∑i=1LOi, each term supported on at most q qubits (not necessarily neighboring), choose a norm budget B≥1 satisfying ∑i∥Oi∥∞≤B. A smaller norm budget may be replaced by one. There are uniform positive constants, depending only on the fixed physical bounds, q, and δ, such that for every fixed mean-squared error tolerance ε∈(0,1] and all sufficiently large m, public sample counts, cutoffs, and actual classical arithmetic/RAM programs can be selected before the unknown Hamiltonian family, training draw, observable entries, and test parameter. The training set consists of N independent uniform parameter draws, with one fresh-copy randomized Pauli snapshot Sℓ at each point. Pauli axes are independently uniform; the joint measurement outcomes obey the Born law.
with N≤CB2mCB2/ε and computed classical training and prediction work O((n+L)B2mO(B2/ε)). The compact representation stores mN real parameter words and nN six-valued labels, encodable in 3nN bits. The programs read and store those data and compute the observable value; they do not materialize the represented matrix. Ground-state preparation and data generation are excluded from this classical work.
For every fixed subsystem A of at most q qubits, separately with confidence at least 1−δ,
ExtrAc(σN(x)−ρ(x))1≤4qε.
Thus taking ε=η2/4q gives the informal constant trace-norm error η on a fixed few-body reduced matrix. This conversion uses the finite Pauli expansion and allocates confidence δ/4q to its coefficients; it leaves the polynomial-in-m, linear-in-n conclusion intact at fixed accuracy and locality.
This result describes generalization in population average for the source's compact shadow predictor. It asserts neither pointwise error nor simultaneous accuracy on all observables or subsystems, and does not require the predicted representation to be positive or trace one.
Formalization Note Theorem 3 on PDF pp.29–30 explicitly identifies itself as the detailed restatement of Theorem 1. Its Eq. (F3) prints exact ground-state labels, whereas its premise and Eqs. (2), (E3), and (F27) specify shadow labels; the latter determine the model above. This discrepancy and the nonperiodic-boundary gap in Lemma 2 are recorded for independent source moderation, without adding periodicity or a gradient bound as hypotheses.

Fix a positive finite dimension d and finite labelled sets X,Y,Z,B of preparation actions, dynamics actions, measurement actions, and measurement outcomes. Let Q be any set of world models W=({ρx}x∈X,{Ey}y∈Y,{Mzb}z∈Z,b∈B) on Cd: every preparation is a density matrix, every dynamics action is a CPTP map, and each measurement is a POVM. The model class may be uncountable and may contain equivalent descriptions.
Suppose every W∈Q is universal: some preparation is pure; some finite collection of dynamics actions implements exact unitary channels whose representatives generate a dense subgroup of SU(d); and some measurement effect is not proportional to the identity. These witnessing actions and their physical descriptions are unknown and may vary between worlds. Mathematical inverses enter the generated subgroup; physical access to inverse actions is not assumed.
Then there exists a fixed family (Lk)k∈N of finite classical experimental procedures, chosen before the unknown world. Each procedure adaptively chooses experiments that freshly prepare ρx, apply a finite word of the available dynamics actions, and measure one of the available POVMs. Its description output is denoted W(k)=({ρx(k)},{Ey(k)},{Mzb(k)}). For every W∈Q, every ϵ>0, and every 0<δ<1, there exists k0 such that for all k≥k0 there is one unitary or anti-unitary gauge G satisfying
Here PrW is computed from the experimental outcome probabilities and internal classical randomization of Lk. A unitary gauge has the form G(A)=UAU†; an anti-unitary gauge has the form G(A)=UAU†. The same gauge is fixed outside all three collections of probability clauses. Both norms are unhalved. The output estimates need not themselves be lawful quantum objects.
The result establishes learnability of all labelled operations from untrusted experiments under universality. It gives eventual accuracy for each world, with no uniform sample bound, polynomial complexity guarantee, or certified accuracy-based stopping rule.
Formalization Note The finite-action scope is explicit in Theorem D.1 (PDF p.21), although the main-text Theorem 2 does not explicitly restrict the action sets. The stage-indexed interpretation follows the precision-halving procedure in D.2 (p.23) and D.7 (p.33).
Fix a positive finite dimension d and finite labelled sets X,Y,Z,B of preparation actions, dynamics actions, measurement actions, and measurement outcomes. Let Q be any set of world models W=({ρx}x∈X,{Ey}y∈Y,{Mzb}z∈Z,b∈B) on Cd: every preparation is a density matrix, every dynamics action is a CPTP map, and each measurement is a POVM. The model class may be uncountable and may contain equivalent descriptions.
Suppose every W∈Q is universal: some preparation is pure; some finite collection of dynamics actions implements exact unitary channels whose representatives generate a dense subgroup of SU(d); and some measurement effect is not proportional to the identity. These witnessing actions and their physical descriptions are unknown and may vary between worlds. Mathematical inverses enter the generated subgroup; physical access to inverse actions is not assumed.
Then there exists a fixed family (Lk)k∈N of finite classical experimental procedures, chosen before the unknown world. Each procedure adaptively chooses experiments that freshly prepare ρx, apply a finite word of the available dynamics actions, and measure one of the available POVMs. Its description output is denoted W(k)=({ρx(k)},{Ey(k)},{Mzb(k)}). For every W∈Q, every ϵ>0, and every 0<δ<1, there exists k0 such that for all k≥k0 there is one unitary or anti-unitary gauge G satisfying
Here PrW is computed from the experimental outcome probabilities and internal classical randomization of Lk. A unitary gauge has the form G(A)=UAU†; an anti-unitary gauge has the form G(A)=UAU†. The same gauge is fixed outside all three collections of probability clauses. Both norms are unhalved. The output estimates need not themselves be lawful quantum objects.

Setting
Consider Protocol 1 of Chen, Yu, Zeng and Flammia on n≥1 qubits, with Hilbert space dimension d=2n.

A Grand Unification of Quantum AlgorithmsResearch Paper
Motivation
A Grand Unification of Quantum Algorithms establishes the selected mathematical guarantees below. The mission turns those original paper results into precise Lean proof targets.
Setting
Fix a nonnegative integer l, put d=2l+1, and choose real phases ϕ0,…,ϕd−1. There are complex polynomials P,Q, depending only on these phases and l, with degP≤d, degQ≤d−1, and respective parities d and d−1 modulo 2, such that
∣P(x)∣2+(1−x2)∣Q(x)∣2=1for every x∈[−1,1].
For every finite quantum register, every pair of normalized pure states ∣A0⟩,∣B0⟩ in that register, and every unitary U with a real nonzero amplitude a=⟨A0∣U∣B0⟩, define the available exact rank-one phase shifts Aϕ=eiϕ∣A0⟩⟨A0∣ and Bϕ=eiϕ∣B0⟩⟨B0∣ for real ϕ. Then
⟨A0∣Aϕ0[k=1∏lUBϕ2k−1U†Aϕ2k]U∣B0⟩=P(a).
The product is written in increasing k from left to right, and its rightmost U acts first. Normalization and unitarity imply a∈[−1,1]; the endpoints a=±1 are allowed. Parity means P(−x)=(−1)dP(x) and Q(−x)=(−1)d−1Q(x).
This construction applies one uniform polynomial to a privileged transition amplitude and connects amplitude amplification with quantum signal processing.
Formalization Note The finite register is a Euclidean space over an arbitrary finite basis type. The frozen positive-sign rank-one phase shifts and sequence encode Eq. (13) exactly. The complementary polynomial is existentially quantified with P before the register, states, unitary and amplitude. The zero polynomial is allowed as Q, including when l=0.

Quantum Expander Codes establishes the selected mathematical guarantees below. The mission turns those original paper results into precise Lean proof targets.
Setting
Fix positive integer degrees ΔA,ΔB and positive real constants γA,δA,γB,δB, with δA,δB<1/6. There are a deterministic classical decoder, a constant C>0, and an integer n0, all chosen before the graph sizes and inputs, with the following properties.
Let G=(A⊔B,E) be any finite simple bipartite graph with 1≤nB=∣B∣≤nA=∣A∣, left degree ΔA and right degree ΔB. For every S⊆A with ∣S∣≤γAnA, require ∣Γ(S)∣≥(1−δA)ΔA∣S∣, where Γ(S) denotes its neighboring vertices. Require the corresponding right expansion for every S⊆B with ∣S∣≤γBnB.
Form the self hypergraph-product CSS code on the tagged coordinates Q=(A×A)⊔(B×B), of length n=nA2+nB2. Write H for the binary incidence matrix with rows B and columns A, and set HX=[IA⊗H∣HT⊗IB], HZ=[H⊗IA∣IB⊗HT]. Let RX and RZ be their respective binary row spaces.
On every syndrome input, the decoder terminates and realizes the Section 3 small-set-flip algorithm, treating the two components independently. Each step flips a nonempty subset of an opposite generator's support, strictly reduces syndrome weight, and maximizes the decrease divided by the number of flipped coordinates. The deterministic implementation fixes its choices among the finitely many tied candidates. A zero syndrome returns the accumulated correction; a nonzero syndrome with no improving flip returns failure. Whenever n≥n0, its total uniform-cost word-machine instruction count, together with the cost of loading its adjacency-list and syndrome input, is at most Cn.
For every binary error pair e=(eX,eZ) on Q, let w(e) count coordinates on which at least one component is nonzero. If
w(e)<w0:=3(1+ΔB)min(γAnA,γBnB),
then on the exact syndrome (HXeX,HZeZ) the decoder returns a correction (cX,cZ) satisfying
cX+eX∈RZ,cZ+eZ∈RX.
Correctness holds at every admissible finite size. This is an exact adversarial decoding guarantee for the associated quantum code, with linear classical runtime when degrees are fixed.
Formalization Note The positive-degree, nonempty-part convention used in the paper's proof is explicit. Equation (6)'s mixed coordinate names are read as the supports of the HX rows fixed by Equation (1) and the incidence formulas. These source clarifications are disclosed for independent moderation; the strict threshold and all constants in it are unchanged. Runtime and realization are conclusions about an executable classical machine; no progress or minimum-distance assertion is a hypothesis.

Let D,L≥1, let α1,…,αL>0 be known coefficients, and let t>0 and 0<ϵ<1. For any unitary matrices H1,…,HL on a D-dimensional system whose sum H=∑ℓ=1LαℓHℓ is Hermitian, count coherent signed controlled selection ∣b,ℓ,ψ⟩↦∣b,ℓ⟩(−iHℓ)b∣ψ⟩ and its inverse as the access operations. Set T=t∑ℓαℓ, r=⌈T/ln2⌉, and n=⌈log2D⌉.
There are absolute constants C>0, c≥1, and q0>exp(exp(1)), chosen before all instance data, for which the following holds. Choose the least nonnegative truncation order K satisfying ∑k=K+1∞(ln2)k/k!≤ϵ/(cr). From D,L,α,t,ϵ alone one can construct the paper's segmented Taylor simulator, before choosing the term oracle or the input state. The simulator uses r−1 segments of duration ln2/∑ℓαℓ and the remaining positive duration as its final segment. Each segment uses the Taylor LCU, the normalization ancilla, and robust oblivious amplification −WRW†RW, with fresh zero ancillas that are subsequently discarded.

S(J∣ψ⟩⟨ψ∣J†)−Je−iHt∣ψ⟩⟨ψ∣eiHtJ†1≤ϵ.
Every segment's truncated operator differs from its exact evolution by at most ϵ/(cr) in spectral norm. The same construction also approximates the padded Hamiltonian on every normalized state of the full qubit register. The number of signed-selector calls is at most Cr(K+1); the number of other elementary gates is at most CLr(K+1); and peak ancillary qubits, treating the selector as the primitive access operation, are at most C(1+⌈log2L⌉)(K+1).
For T≥1 and T/ϵ≥q0, the order and counted access cost satisfy
K≤Cloglog(T/ϵ)log(T/ϵ),Q≤CTloglog(T/ϵ)log(T/ϵ).
If a signed-selector implementation has g elementary gates and w clean workspace qubits, there are elementary segment circuits implementing the same simulator, returning that workspace to zero, with total gate count at most C(L+g)r(K+1). In the special case in which the padded terms are tensor products of single-qubit Pauli matrices, such circuits exist with total gate count at most CL(n+1+⌈log2L⌉)r(K+1) and peak ancillary qubits at most C(1+⌈log2L⌉)(K+1).
This gives the paper's time-independent simulation cost without requiring commuting, self-inverse, Hermitian individual terms or a bound on ∥H∥.
Formalization Note The paper does not name the reduced-state norm. Trace norm without the factor 1/2 is used to make its discard-ancillas and error-accumulation argument precise. Eq. (10)'s failure coefficient, Eq. (16)'s partial trace of a ket, and the printed order-register amplitude are corrected as recorded in the audit. Arbitrary one- and two-qubit gates are used, with exact rotations and inverses; finite-gate-set synthesis overhead is outside the claim.

Let N≥1, let A∈CN×N be Hermitian and invertible with ∥A∥op=1, and let κ≥1 be a supplied upper bound on its condition number. Let b=0, and write ∣b⟩=b/∥b∥ and ∣x⟩=A−1b/∥A−1b∥. The coherent preparation procedure PB prepares ∣b⟩ in polynomial time in logN on the ⌈log2N⌉-qubit state register; its inverse is available. Put L=max{1,log(κ/ε)}, with 0<ε<1.
There are absolute positive constants and fixed asymptotic thresholds, chosen before all public parameters and hidden inputs, with the following two conclusions.
A single oracle-independent Fourier reduction for the public parameters solves the problem for every such A,b,PB and every compatible coherent SELECT simulator. Sparsity is not needed for this conclusion. SELECT implements the signed evolutions used by the Fourier sum, uniformly on superpositions and with reverse access. Its maximum evolution time, required operator error, number of calls, and number of preparation calls satisfy
∣t∣≤CtκL,η=CηκLε,QSELECT,QPB≤CcallsκL.
The reduction outputs a success flag with probability at least 1/2. Conditional on success, its system output is the pure state whose vector representative is the normalized action of the actually simulated Fourier block on ∣b⟩, and
∣x⟩−∣x⟩2≤ε.
This representative is fixed by the Fourier block; the error is not minimized over global phases. Failure output is unrestricted.
If A has at most d nonzero entries in each row and column, with 1≤d≤N, and PA supplies both the in-place column-location oracle and the XOR entry oracle of equations (1)–(2), then there is a concrete sparse implementation with the same output guarantee and worst-case bounds
The sum QPA counts the two matrix-oracle operations separately and then adds them. Short columns may be padded with zero entries, the location lists need not be sorted, and injectivity of each in-place location map is required. Entries use a public ordinary signed binary complex-number format. This is the exact-entry branch of the paper's access model; sufficiently accurate finite-precision access is covered through the simulator error budget. No controlled access to the input black boxes is assumed. External gates exclude internal implementations of PA and PB; inlining either subroutine adds its per-call gate cost times its corresponding number of calls.
The bounds establish logarithmic dependence on output precision for quantum state preparation. The number of calls is bounded in the worst case using a finite capped amplification routine.
Formalization Note The Lean conclusion includes both clauses in one theorem and fixes the reduction and sparse circuits before quantifying over hidden inputs. The preparation-time polynomial and binary format are public parameters. Successful output is represented by a subnormalized pure density matrix together with its explicitly specified vector representative and direct vector error. Invalid qubit padding cannot count as successful output.
Correction to the printed source.
Printed: Page 8 says a worst-case amplification guarantee needs an 'upper bound on the probability q'; page 15 writes 'τ := y_J y_K'.
Corrected: Use a known positive lower bound on q for capped amplification, as Corollary 10 does, and read the maximum evolution time as y_J z_K.
Reason: The required amplification work grows when q decreases; Corollary 10 provides q bounded below using known coefficient mass. The Fourier times are y_j z_k in (18), (31), (52); y_K is not the defined z cutoff.

Corrected: Use a known positive lower bound on q for capped amplification, as Corollary 10 does, and read the maximum evolution time as y_J z_K.
Reason: The required amplification work grows when q decreases; Corollary 10 provides q bounded below using known coefficient mass. The Fourier times are y_j z_k in (18), (31), (52); y_K is not the defined z cutoff.

Angel-Devil: Complete Integer-Power ClassificationResearch Paper
Motivation
The Angel problem asks whether bounded movement can overcome an adversary that destroys one square per turn on an infinite chessboard. It is a question about strategies for arbitrarily long play, rather than about finding a path through one fixed configuration. The Devil may act anywhere on the board, including far ahead of the Angel. The movement range therefore has to be compared with a changing obstacle set and with an opponent that observes earlier moves.
This mission collects the complete classification for natural-number powers in one formal development. The power-one loss is the known Berlekamp king-capture result described in Kutz's 2004 thesis, Section 1.1. The power-two win is Mathe's Theorem 4.6 (2007). Higher powers and the exact threshold are consequences of these published results and the movement rules. This is formalization of known mathematics; it does not propose a new solution to an open problem.
Setting
A square is a point of the integer lattice Z2. The Angel starts at the origin. Its power is a natural number p, including zero. A legal jump changes each coordinate by at most p in absolute value. Intermediate squares impose no restriction, and zero-length moves are allowed. Thus power one has the movement range of a chess king, while power zero cannot change position.
The ordinary Devil moves first in every round. It chooses at most one square to burn, or passes. A burned square remains burned. Repeated choices are allowed and do not destroy additional squares. Naming the Angel's currently occupied square is permitted; the loss condition is checked at the Angel's subsequent landing. The Angel loses if its destination is burned or its displacement exceeds its power.
A strategy uses only the finite history available at the time of the move. A Devil strategy receives the visited positions. An Angel strategy receives these positions and the Devil actions, including the action just taken in the current round. Every pair of strategies defines a play by recursion. Write Survives(p,A,D) when all rounds of this play have legal, unburned landings, and define
AngelWins(p)⟺∃A∀D,Survives(p,A,D).
Formalization targets
The mission's main theorem is the exact classification
∀p∈N,AngelWins(p)⟺2≤p.
Its two principal outcomes are
∃D∀A,¬Survives(1,A,D),
and
∀p∈N,2≤p⟹AngelWins(p).
The first statement supplies one Devil strategy defeating every power-one Angel, rather than an opponent chosen separately after seeing a complete Angel play. Likewise, the Angel's winning strategy is chosen before the opposing Devil strategy. All these statements use the same game definition.
The source milestones retain the original Nice Devil reduction and escape theorem, add Mathe's power-two theorem explicitly, and include the king-capture result from Kutz Section 1.1. A Nice Devil protects the origin and every square within movement range of any visited position other than the most recent position. The corresponding Angel objective includes leaving every finite box. This restricted opponent is an intermediate target; the headline classification concerns the ordinary, unrestricted Devil. Monotonicity and the higher-power corollary are available in the linked theorem dependency graph without attributing invented theorem numbers to either source.
Significance
The classification identifies the exact integer threshold: one square of movement in each coordinate is insufficient, whereas two suffice. It distinguishes unlimited survival from success for a fixed number of rounds. The lower endpoint is covered as well, because the formal parameter is a natural number rather than a strictly positive integer.
The formal development makes the quantifier order, observation rules, and geometric assumptions inspectable. The classification and both principal outcomes already have machine-checked proofs. The repository audit records 228 checked local theorems and six accepted extension submissions. Its classification dependency graph contains 37 nodes, 66 edges, and zero open leaves. These are verification results, not independent peer review or a new mathematical publication. The mission now presents this completed body of work as one navigable result.
Difficulty
A finite simulation cannot establish survival against every opponent forever. Conversely, failure of several candidate Angel strategies does not establish a uniform winning Devil strategy. Finite and infinite play must be related without reversing the strategic quantifiers. The geometric statements also have to constrain the evolving play, rather than describe only a static drawing. For the king-capture result, local boundary restrictions must remain valid after every legal move; for the power-two result, the source's confinement and escape assertions must refer to the same operational game.
Formalization scope
The implementation uses integer pairs, finite histories, optional Devil actions, finite sets, and recursion on natural numbers. Lean 4.33.1 and the pinned Mathlib revision match the platform environment. The closed local entry point is Solutions.PowerClassification; Solutions.Completed retains the original Mathe assembly. The definitions do not assume a winning strategy or restrict the headline game to a finite board.
The king-capture implementation uses deliberately loose radius-100 constants for an internal confinement argument. It does not claim an optimal capture time or a formalization of the smallest board illustrated by the source. Fractional speeds and Devils burning multiple squares per turn are outside this mission. Reusable material includes finite-game determinacy, finite-survival compactness, journey reduction, connected-square boundary estimates, and strategy monotonicity. Independent reproduction and documentation improvements are welcome; there is no remaining open proof obligation for the stated classification. Platform reference mirrors containing sorry are kept separate from the closed local proof library, whose audited dependencies contain only the standard Lean axioms.

Continuous graph homomorphisms for Zd-actions: Theorem 1.4 and Proposition 7.1Research Paper
Continuous colorings of lattice actions
A graph homomorphism sends vertices of one graph to another while preserving adjacency. Requiring this map to be continuous makes graph coloring sensitive to topology: each color must occupy an open and closed region. For integer lattice actions, the resulting questions connect finite graph structure with continuous dynamics. The results considered here give an algebraic sufficient condition on a finite target graph that works in every finite lattice dimension. They are Theorem 1.4 and Proposition 7.1 of Ruijun Wang's Continuous graph homomorphisms of higher dimensional abelian group actions, a 2026 research preprint.
Actions, graphs, and reduced walks
Fix an integer d≥1. The integer lattice is G=Zd, with standard generators ei. Each generator has one coordinate equal to one and all other coordinates zero. An action of G on a space X assigns maps x↦g⋅x satisfying 0⋅x=x and (g+h)⋅x=g⋅(h⋅x). A continuous action uses the discrete topology on G. It is free when g⋅x=x implies g=0.
A Polish space has a topology induced by a complete separable metric. It is zero-dimensional when its topology has a basis of clopen sets, meaning sets that are both open and closed. The standard Schreier graph on X joins x to ei⋅x for each generator, with adjacency understood symmetrically.
Let H be a finite simple graph on a vertex set V, equipped with the discrete topology. A continuous homomorphism is a continuous function c:X→V such that
H.Adj(c(x),c(ei⋅x))for every x∈X and i.
Write UniversalTarget(d,H) when such a map exists for every free continuous lattice action on every zero-dimensional Polish space.
A closed walk starts and ends at the same vertex, and its length counts edges. Repetitions are allowed. The reduced homotopy groupΠ1∗(H,b) identifies based closed walks under cancellation of a spur and cancellation of a closed four-walk, with these relations compatible with concatenation. Its identity is the constant walk. These conventions agree with Section 2.
Formalization targets
Theorem 1.4 assumes an odd closed walk whose reduced class has trivial square:
Here N is a positive integer; it need not be the least exponent. The square-trivial case follows by taking N=2. The stronger statement is given in Section 7.1.
Mathematical significance and completion status
These results turn one finite algebraic witness into a conclusion covering all the spaces, actions, and positive dimensions specified above. Once a graph satisfies the hypothesis, an individual action requires no additional dynamical condition beyond the stated assumptions. The conclusion concerns finite discrete targets and the standard generating set.
Both results are established in the cited paper. Complete local Lean proofs now cover their full universal statements. The local project build and kernel audit have passed, and the final declarations use only Lean's standard logical axioms. Prove2Me has accepted the complete uploaded proof dependency graph. Both original headline theorem identities now have status Proved.
The completed development supplies reusable statements and checked infrastructure for lattice actions, reduced graph walks, finite probability distributions, and continuous graph homomorphisms. These components support inspection and reuse beyond the two headline results.
Why continuity requires attention
Choosing a homomorphism separately on each orbit does not ensure continuity across nearby points of the space. Freeness identifies each orbit with a lattice once an origin has been chosen, but does not supply continuously chosen origins across all orbits. A proof must therefore establish continuity of the resulting vertex map itself. Restricting attention to one action, one dimension, or an orbitwise map would leave the stated universal conclusion unresolved.
Formalization scope
The lattice is represented by Find→Z, actions use additive notation, and standard adjacency includes both orientations of each generator edge. Reduced homotopy is an inductively generated relation on genuine Mathlib graph walks; powers are repeated concatenations. The target vertex type is arbitrary and finite, with its discrete topology.
Source spaces and target vertex types have independent universe parameters. Empty source spaces are allowed. No connectivity assumption is imposed on the target, and no separate nonemptiness hypothesis is added. The odd-walk witness already forces target nonemptiness. Neither a carrier-construction assumption nor an approximation condition appears in either final theorem.
Finite order refers to the class of the walk, rather than its length. An odd walk can revisit vertices and traverse edges repeatedly, so the hypothesis does not require an embedded cycle. All four-walk relations are included, including those with repeated vertices. The conclusion asserts existence of a continuous adjacency-preserving function; it asserts neither uniqueness nor injectivity. These distinctions matter when comparing a formal declaration with the source: replacing arbitrary closed walks by simple cycles or adding connectedness would change the objects quantified over. The recorded statements retain the wider walk convention used in the paper.
Further contributions can reuse the infrastructure or establish related variants while preserving these conventions. Any changed statement should distinguish its additional hypotheses and its altered conclusion from the two results recorded here.
R(5,5) ≥ 43 via GF(p) Polynomial SeedingResearch Paper
Motivation
The Ramsey number R(5,5) has remained open since the 1960s. The best known bounds are 43 ≤ R(5,5) ≤ 48, where the lower bound was first established by Exoo (1989) via computational search. This mission formalizes an independent verification using novel GF(p) polynomial seeding.
Setting
The Ramsey number R(s,t) is the smallest n such that every 2-coloring of the complete graph K_n contains either a red K_s or a blue K_t.
Formalization target
Goal: R(5,5) ≥ 43
Established by exhibiting an explicit 2-coloring of K₄₂ with no monochromatic K₅.
Significance
This mission produces a machine-verified certificate of R(5,5) ≥ 43 via the first formalized GF(p) polynomial construction for Ramsey colorings.
Difficulty
The central difficulty is scale: verifying zero violations requires checking all C(42,5) = 850,668 five-element subsets.
Formalization scope
Graphs as finite types
2-colorings as Bool-valued functions

Quantum algorithms for zero-sum gamesResearch Paper
Motivation
Quantum algorithms for zero-sum games establishes the selected mathematical guarantees below. The mission turns those original paper results into precise Lean proof targets.
Setting
Let n,m be positive integers and let A∈[−1,1]n×m be the payoff matrix of a zero-sum game. Alice maximizes the payoff and Bob minimizes it. Let Δn,Δm denote the probability simplexes and let
v∗=y∈Δmmini∈[n]max(Ay)i.
For 0<ε<1 and 0<δ<1/3, run the fixed-accuracy branch of Algorithm 1 for
T=⌈ε216ln(δnm)⌉
completed updates. Starting with zero accumulators x,y, each update independently draws a∈[m] with probabilities proportional to exp(−ATx) and b∈[n] with probabilities proportional to exp(Ay), then adds (ε/4)ea to y and (ε/4)eb to x. The final accumulators are normalized to give x,y.
There is a classical randomized implementation, chosen independently of the entries of A, whose output distribution is exactly the distribution of these normalized updates. Every update makes exactly n+m entry queries and uses O(n+m) numerical work; initialization and final normalization also use O(n+m) work and make no entry queries. The constants and dimension threshold in these work bounds are universal. In particular, the implementation makes exactly T(n+m) entry queries and satisfies the joint guarantee
Pr[x∈Δn,y∈Δm,Ay≤(v∗+ε)1,ATx≥(v∗−ε)1]≥1−δ.
This result supplies the classical dense-entry implementation and equilibrium guarantee for Algorithm 1.
Formalization Note Numerical work uses the ideal arithmetic and finite-distribution sampling model of the proof: exponential evaluation, array operations and linear sampling passes are charged explicitly. This is not a finite-bit running-time claim. The integer iteration count is taken from the fixed-accuracy clause of Lemma 1, which Lemma 3 invokes. Updates are indexed by their number of completed steps, resolving Algorithm 1's initialization/indexing discrepancy.

Convex optimization using quantum oraclesResearch Paper
Motivation
Convex optimization using quantum oracles establishes the selected mathematical guarantees below. The mission turns those original paper results into precise Lean proof targets.
Setting
Let n≥1, let C⊆Rn be convex, and let f:C→R be convex. Assume r1,L>0, 0<ρ≤1/3, 0<δ≤r1nL/ρ, and B∞(0,2r1)⊆C. On this closed cube, assume that f is L-Lipschitz in the Euclidean norm. Suppose finite binary quantum value-oracle access is available on a sufficiently fine hypergrid of this cube: the standard unitary preserves the query index and adds a fixed-point value within δ of f. Its inverse is also available.
There is a quantum algorithm, fixed from the known parameters, grid and encoding before the unknown function and oracle, whose output g∈Rn satisfies, with probability at least 1−ρ, simultaneously for every y∈C,
The total number of forward and inverse oracle calls is O(log(n/ρ)), with an absolute constant uniform over all parameters, domains, functions, encodings, precision and oracle implementations. Precisely, there are absolute K>0 and s0≥1 such that this count is at most ⌈Klog(n/ρ)⌉ when n/ρ≥s0; a successful finite algorithm exists throughout the admissible parameter range.
The same conclusion and query bound hold for a relational unitary δ-approximator: on each clean query input it preserves the input and yields a value within δ with probability at least 2/3, with arbitrary normalized conditional garbage. Access to its inverse is allowed.
This result supplies a uniformly valid approximate supporting hyperplane without assuming differentiability or a smoothness bound on the objective.
Formalization Note The sufficiently fine access condition is explicit geometric coverage of compatible finite-difference and uniform-center grids and translated/scaled Definition-13 midpoint grids. An existential positive resolution threshold allows arbitrarily small mesh and radius-rounding budgets. Known-parameter arithmetic guards preserve the printed constants; neither local near-linearity nor small curvature is an input hypothesis. Grid indices remain exact finite labels under their known affine embedding. The real extension of f outside C is immaterial. No gate bound or convex-set oracle reduction is asserted.

Oracle D.1 and its inverse write exact binary representations of both component traces at initialized answer registers. Oracle D.2 and its inverse jointly prepare arbitrary normalized purifications of Aj±/Tr(Aj±) when that trace is nonzero. At trace zero they prepare arbitrary normalized states, whose zero-weight contributions are ignored. All other finite-register actions, purification phases, and actions on unused qubit labels are arbitrary. Each source tensor factor is separately encoded in binary, in the displayed source order. The actual supplied qubit oracles must restrict to these finite-register unitaries; a known identity extension or controlled black-box operation is not assumed.
There are absolute C>0 and q∈N such that, for each public n,m,S,c,rK,BK,ϵ and binary trace format, a sampler and workspace can be chosen before the hidden PSD matrices and before all compatible oracle unitaries. It terminates almost surely, has a summable unconditional output density σ, and satisfies

Printed / changed / why. Lemma 12 prints ∣S∣poly(logn,rK,BK,ϵ−1). The corrected elementary-gate statement includes 1+logm to charge preparation of an indexed-oracle address, and excludes empty support to avoid a literal zero-cost maximally mixed state. Zero components are retained according to the paper's own application on p.29; the arbitrary-state convention completes the otherwise undefined normalized quotient without changing any nonzero component. Precision uses the unhalved trace norm in Eqs. (F.15)–(F.17); expected repetition is stated on p.33.
Correction to the printed source.
Printed: For S subset [m], Lemma 12 gives |S| * poly(log n, r_K, B_K, epsilon inverse) quantum gates and D.1/D.2 queries; D.2 writes A_j^sign / Tr(A_j^sign) without a zero-trace convention.
Corrected: Require S nonempty and include an elementary address-cost factor 1 + log m in both the |S| bound and its Phi corollary. Permit arbitrary normalized D.2 outputs for zero PSD components and arbitrary unitary completions on unused qubit labels, preserving the promises on every nonzero component.
Reason: The all-zero initialized elementary-gate model must prepare an m-valued address: for singleton S at a distant index this requires Omega(log m) one- or two-qubit gates, while the printed bound has no m dependence. Empty S makes the printed bound zero although K=0 has Gibbs state I/n, which is mixed for n>1. The paper explicitly applies Lemma 12 with zero components on p.29, and Lemma 11 assigns them zero selection probability; excluding them drops source cases. No nonzero quotient, Gibbs target, rank/trace bound, oracle count, accuracy, or quantifier order is changed.

K±=j∈S∑cjAj±,K=K+−K−.
Assume rank(K+),rank(K−)≤rK and Tr(K+)+Tr(K−)≤BK, with rK∈N, BK≥0, and ϵ>0.
Oracle D.1 and its inverse write exact binary representations of both component traces at initialized answer registers. Oracle D.2 and its inverse jointly prepare arbitrary normalized purifications of Aj±/Tr(Aj±) when that trace is nonzero. At trace zero they prepare arbitrary normalized states, whose zero-weight contributions are ignored. All other finite-register actions, purification phases, and actions on unused qubit labels are arbitrary. Each source tensor factor is separately encoded in binary, in the displayed source order. The actual supplied qubit oracles must restrict to these finite-register unitaries; a known identity extension or controlled black-box operation is not assumed.
There are absolute C>0 and q∈N such that, for each public n,m,S,c,rK,BK,ϵ and binary trace format, a sampler and workspace can be chosen before the hidden PSD matrices and before all compatible oracle unitaries. It terminates almost surely, has a summable unconditional output density σ, and satisfies
Here G counts one- and two-qubit gates, preparations and measurements, and Q counts actual oracle or inverse calls. Finite classical draws are free in this model. The same bound holds with any Φ≥∣S∣ in place of ∣S∣.
Printed / changed / why. Lemma 12 prints ∣S∣poly(logn,rK,BK,ϵ−1). The corrected elementary-gate statement includes 1+logm to charge preparation of an indexed-oracle address, and excludes empty support to avoid a literal zero-cost maximally mixed state. Zero components are retained according to the paper's own application on p.29; the arbitrary-state convention completes the otherwise undefined normalized quotient without changing any nonzero component. Precision uses the unhalved trace norm in Eqs. (F.15)–(F.17); expected repetition is stated on p.33.
Correction to the printed source.
Printed: For S subset [m], Lemma 12 gives |S| * poly(log n, r_K, B_K, epsilon inverse) quantum gates and D.1/D.2 queries; D.2 writes A_j^sign / Tr(A_j^sign) without a zero-trace convention.
Corrected: Require S nonempty and include an elementary address-cost factor 1 + log m in both the |S| bound and its Phi corollary. Permit arbitrary normalized D.2 outputs for zero PSD components and arbitrary unitary completions on unused qubit labels, preserving the promises on every nonzero component.
Reason: The all-zero initialized elementary-gate model must prepare an m-valued address: for singleton S at a distant index this requires Omega(log m) one- or two-qubit gates, while the printed bound has no m dependence. Empty S makes the printed bound zero although K=0 has Gibbs state I/n, which is mixed for n>1. The paper explicitly applies Lemma 12 with zero components on p.29, and Lemma 11 assigns them zero selection probability; excluding them drops source cases. No nonzero quotient, Gibbs target, rank/trace bound, oracle count, accuracy, or quantifier order is changed.
Significance
These are known results from the cited paper. The current contribution consists of source-reviewed, compiler-checked theorem statements and mathematical definitions. Formal proofs remain open. Only the listed selected results are in scope; no whole-paper completeness is claimed.
Difficulty
A complete solution must establish every quantified conclusion under the exact stated hypotheses, including error, probability and resource conditions wherever present. The source assumptions and conventions are recorded in the attached statements and independent readbacks.
Formalization scope
Definitions preserve the existing reviewed Lean interfaces. Every target proof is currently sorry, so each target is Open. Printed-source corrections, where necessary, are labeled with the printed claim, the change and its reason.
